Top Academic Programs for International Students in the USA Top Academic Programs for International Students in the USA The United States has long been a favored destination for international students seeking quality education and diverse cultural experiences. With numerous universities offering a range of academic programs, international students can find fields that not only align with their interests but also equip them with skills for a global workforce. Here are some of the top academic programs in the USA that attract international students: 1. Engineering Engineering remains one of the most sought-after fields of study for students from abroad. ... > Readmore https://lnkd.in/eW84ikyr

In the U.S., higher education is more than just academics; it's a cornerstone of personal identity and social status. The journey through college is often seen as a critical step towards achieving the "American Dream." With vibrant campus life, including sports, fraternities, and a plethora of extracurricular activities, American colleges foster a strong sense of community and loyalty among students and alumni. This cultural emphasis, combined with a larger number of globally recognized institutions, enhances the perception of prestige and opportunity. As a English observer, the American college experience will always remain a bit of a mystery. But I'd be curious to understand how having the 'right' or 'wrong' alma-mater impacts someone's prospect when they're sat in the interviewee's chair. Here's a link to the best engineering schools in the US this year based on their reputation among graduate school deans, faculty citations, student selectivity and research activity: https://lnkd.in/d5bSYp_i

Can't wait to meet fellow physicists at the WRIPA Fair (wripa.ac.uk) at University of York (york.ac.uk) Wednesday 16th October 2024! Ark Teacher Training (arkteachertraining.org) understands that physicists bring a unique perspective to education. I’m excited to share with you the ways you can make an astounding impact, both in the classroom and beyond. Scientific thinking isn't just for the lab; it's a game-changer in education. It encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and evidence-based reasoning. Imagine students who can question assumptions, analyse data, and draw logical conclusions—skills that are invaluable in all areas of life. As a future educator, you’ll have the chance to cultivate these essential skills in your students and inspire the next generation of thinkers and innovators. Being part of Ark (arkonline.org/our-ventures) means you are part of a movement that is working beyond our schools for systemic impact. Educators who champion evidence-based decision-making can drive transformative change within the education system itself, creating environments that prioritise inquiry and collaboration. This leadership approach not only enhances the learning experience for students but also fosters a culture where future leaders are equipped to navigate and improve our increasingly complex educational landscape. #WRIPA2024 #TeacherTraining #PhysicsEducation #InspireTheFuture #UniversityofYork #UniversityofSheffield #UniversityofLeeds #UniversityofHull #UniversityofNottingham

Really excited that this paper led by Desen Ozkan is now available! We look at connections between two topics I have often studied individually but not previously together - study abroad and systems thinking. Can studying abroad help develop engineering students' systems thinking? Find out more at the link below, it is available open access!

I'm so pleased to be able to share a project that Kirsten Davis, James (Jamie) Davis, Dr. Jessica Deters, Homero Murzi, Ph.D., and I just published in the European Journal of Engineering Education. Our paper, Fostering systems thinking through engineering study abroad programs, explores how students reflect on sociotechnical systems during two engineering-focused study abroad programs. One group visited the UK and Ireland, while the other traveled to China. Without specific prompting, students reflected on technical aspects (as defined by Grohs et al., 2019) as well as economic, social, political, and cultural dimensions. These reflections demonstrate how students interpret and engage with complex systems they observe and participate in. Here's a quick excerpt from a student who reflected on their experience growing up in the U.S. Rust Belt and their experiences in an automated Chinese steel mill. "The mill was efficient and mostly automated: few workers were needed to operate the enormous machines. This was particularly of interest to me, a student from the Midwest/Rust Belt from Pittsburgh. I grew up in the shadows of closed-down steel plants and poor communities that once relied on the steel jobs that had gone off to China. Now I was standing right here. Here were the jobs – but there weren’t that many of them. In the area that I am from, ignoring some of his other ideas because they aren’t entirely relevant here, Trump’s isolationist trade ideas are almost unanimously popular. It was very interesting for me to come to China and see the steel industry here and observe the realities of what is happening: wherever the steel is produced in these modern times, it will never be factories full of thousands of workers like my community used to know. It will be many machines and a few dozen workers, wherever those few may be from." [China 45] This reflection highlights how engineering students connected their lived experiences to the sociopolitical and technical systems they encountered abroad. Our paper suggests strategies for building on these insights in study abroad programs and other experiential learning contexts. This project was a labor of love, spanning job transitions, the completion of a dissertation, and the pandemic. I’m deeply grateful to have worked with such an incredible team on a topic close to all our hearts. We splurged for open access, so please feel free to explore our work here: https://lnkd.in/exfGiEJr
